Christmas presents, like perfumes as a good example, could be purchased at the Barlow & Spicer Drug Store a century ago. This pioneer business was located at the corner of South Broadway Avenue and West Clark Street. The Taco King is now in this building. From left are L.W. Spicer, Dr. A.C. Wedge, F.W.
